Erytheia

One of the three Hesperides, dryads and "Daughters of Darkness" born from primordial Night. She and her sisters tend Hera's Garden, a wedding gift from Gaia herself to the newlywed Hera and Zeus. The crown jewel of the garden is the grove of Golden Apples, capable of bestowing immortality to those who eat them. Erytheia and her sisters have fended off gods and mortals alike keen on stealing the Golden Apples, often relying on their charm, wit, and natural affinity for the deadly aspects of being dryads to protect the Garden. Erytheia tends to prefer forms of deadly flowers, a beautiful warning for any would be thieves. She enjoys tending the garden with her sisters, spending their days in idyllic paradise singing, painting, and creating new plant hybrids. She also finds joy in the care of Ladon, the massive Terradragon that is coiled around the apple grove as a formidable second line of defense.
